late night thoughts when i should be sleeping

do you want this as much as i do?

stability veracity the sense that i can
turn to a someone and know what to expect

ability complexity the depth of thought to
perceive existence with the seriousness it deserves

audacity intensity the guts and gumption to
fight adulteration at every step at every moment
in decay's every harmless-seeming guise

(i pray to god in heaven
because i fear for you)

nobility simplicity the courage to
make yourself vulnerable to the only one who matters
(please be vulnerable)

identity (divinity?) infinity
truth
are you really hungry for it?

tell me do you want this?
darling, you have left me doubting.

i fear that we shall weep together once again.
